New York terror attack happened ‘5 blocks’ from Priyanka Chopra’s home

New York: Eight people were killed and eleven others seriously injured as a pickup driver killed eight people in New York’s Lower Manhattan on Tuesday. Deemed as the first “act of terrorism” since September 11, 2001, attack on the World Trade Centre, the driver mowed down cyclists and pedestrians before striking a school bus. According to reports, this unfortunate event took place “just five blocks” from Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra’s residence.

The actress, who has been in NYC, shooting for the third season of her hit American TV show ‘Quantico’, took to Twitter to condemn the attack and also to condole with “everyone affected by the tragedy.”
